I'm constantly having packages arrive at the Dayton sorting office, sit there for days and then update to "in transit to next facility" and then get sent off to Columbus or Kentucky or wherever they feel like sending it. The "next facility" should be my house. In Dayton. Which is why it was sent to the Dayton sorting office. Utterly useless. Now I have to wait another week or more (if it ever arrives at all) for something that should have been here 3 days ago because Dayton apparently has no idea what they're doing.

Came in to rent a po box. The worker that waited on me was on her phone while waiting on me. Huh?? Realized when i got home i didn't get keys. Went back a few hours later and was given some dirty greasy keys they couldn t be bothered to at least wipe off and no apology. But you put more effort and care to put up decorations...

Unhelpful. When pursuing information about a package with a usps tracking number, information was not looked for in the system, after two weeks of not receiving a package that is clearly in the Dayton system, I was told to just continue to wait without looking up package or information. Will avoid this branch in the future.

The USPS website is not at all correct. There is no such thing as getting a change of address done immediately, that is a total lie. And going in to the post office doesn't offer that either. So be prepared to wait the normal 10- 14 days to start receiving your mail at your new address.
